Sharing - my new 08' CVO SERK Custom Solo seat & bagset
« on: September 01, 2009, 12:51:16 AM »

Thought I'd share a picture of my 08' CVO SERK/FLHRSE4 with its new custom 1-up seat and saddlebag set-up. Produced by Roberti_Customs of Houston, Texas, a new 2-up seat and backrests set is in production now. If your seeking custom leather or exotic skins work, Roberti deliveries one of a kind workmanship that is equal to or (in my opinion) greater than the majority of others.

What your looking at here is genuine Nile crocodile (lower bag sections) crowned with highly detailed hand tooled leather. If your interested, take note of the detailed workmanship such as the crocodile tails centering at the end of each bag, the musical scroll leather tooling. Additionally, the MC has received accents (hand-painted) by Scarecrow during the Sturgis 69th (2009) Rally, re: lower front fender and tailend of rear.

Happy to hear your opinions on this work and the overall appearance.

Here is another photo from a alternate viewpoint....

A SW-Louisiana based MC, the theme used deplicts Mardi-Gras and the "Cajun" music the region is so well known for. The seat features that official State of Louisiana emblem (centered) with the rear section tooled to read "Lassisez Les Bons Temp Rouler" or in other words, "Let the Good Times Roll" and is further accented by the musical scroll and notes. The bags, feature genuine Nile crocodile (no cheap imitation here), carefully sewn and topped with tooled leather lids that feature the icons of Louisiana. Note the croc tail detail at the end of each bag.

Quite honestly, these photos do not do justice and the MC received a tremendous amount of attention at and during the 69th Sturgis rally. Its clean lines accompanied by the custom leather/skin work seemed to draw the attention of others.

Nice saddle and bags on that "Iron Horse".  Saddle-up! Rawhide ...  I gotta say, that has to be the most interesting set of bags and seat I've seen yet on that model bike.  I ride the same kind of bike ...  Take it easy.

Click on the enclosed .jpeg files, which will then open and you can view in more closer detail if you desire to do so. Also, be sure to check-out www.roberticustoms.com which is the website of Roberti and provides info on their services. They are "top notch" and have to be among the best craftsmen out there if your looking for custom seat/bag works for your MC.

Thanks again to all who showed interest.

2 days in a row we see some of the most incredible leatherwork ever on this site. Beautiful bags and seat! They really work well with the bike. Love the chrome accents on the bags, love the tooling! Great job! Plus, I'm sure your wallet is much lighter and easier to carry around now as well.

That is simply some of the best leather tooling I've seen in a long time.  Although I'm not a fan of aligator leather, you hit a home-run with those.  Magnificent works of art!!!  Don't know if I'd keep them on the bike... ;)

Kudos on a fine custom.  Just wish I was close to a leather craftsman like that.  Hope to view your scoot in person someday 'cause I know the pics don't really do it justice.   :)spyder
